March 12, 2013 — One of the Expedition 34 crew members aboard the Earth-orbiting International Space Station captured this high oblique image of the environs of NASA's 1625-acre Johnson Space Center (clearly seen in the lower right quadrant of the image). NASA Parkway can be traced from the space complex eastward almost to Galveston Bay.
